Wrong. If one does not toe the party line here you are under personal attacks. Which are against the posting rules, which are very selectivly enforced. If one brings up different and larger ways to look at topics the attacks start. I play by the rules and get attacked. I respond to the attacks and I am the bad guy? The mods know I am right but I question their fortitude by not enforcing their own rules.Rather then questioning the moderators, perhaps you should look at yourself and ask the question what it is about your actions that has made you change your name on this board many times over. I think you are in a bit of denial with the "it's not me it's them" mantra.

I respond to the personal attacks. I am not the one making the personal attacks. That is the irony here. Why do you not comment about how I am subject to endless personal attacks? I do not start these things, that would be the middle school girls group here, I just respond. I try and bring up questions and topics to discuss. What do I get in responce? Personal attacks. Hence my previous comment about small minds and big minds.The irony is priceless. You are talking about people in the same "small minded" manner that you just wrote about. You were a lot nicer when you were pretending to be someone other than watchmaker, now you are back to your condescending ways.
-
Another small mind responds.From someone who mentions who he knows and is "friends" with in Grand Forks more than anyone outside of gfhockey, that is pretty funny.

Not on a sports channel but according to Schlos it is on. You will just have to look under PPT to find it. Channel listings here: http://undhockey.areavoices.com/?p=96244I wonder if we'll get it on one of the dish sports channels here in the Cities.
-
You do know there are rules about personal attacks? Small minds talk about people. Large minds talk about issues,All of us want to know? All look like sure bets to me.
I always wonder whether smokey/watchmaker and gfhockey/proudsioux are the same person with multiple personalities. One alway drunk/can't write in English, and one just as obnoxious, but not nearly as drunk. Both with big self-proclaimed big schwanstuckes (or is it pocketbooks?).

$8What do they charge?

I thought CHN had it listed as a Big 10 webcast.CHN had it listed as being on the Big 10 Network tonite.
-
Was it even on TV?How were those TV ratings tonite, Mariucci?
-
Then why was nothing said to that person? In fact the poster was treated as the victim. Responding to an attack on your late father is not acting like a middle school girl. Making snide little passive agressive comments is. I post a thought and get attacked in responce because I did not post a feel good comment. Funny considering that most posters here are on the right and the right is always about free speech. I took what Rocco has publically stated and questioned that maybe there was a different way to look at things. What do I get? Attacked. Reminds me of how rodent fans or Bison fans act.No it's not fine. But then you accuse others of responding like a middle school girl.
Back to committed recruits!
-
How about attacking a poster's late father? A man who was very well liked and respected by all in the Grand Forks community. But I am sure that is just fine with you.Threatening violence to a fellow ss.com isn't violating posting rules?
-
Never attacked anyone's personal religious beliefs. You did not need to mention any names. Your passive agressiveness was showing.I just posted a definition. Didn't mention any names. Must have hit close to home for someone. I suppose attacking someones personal religious beliefs doesn't constitue violating posting rules.
-
There is nothing that either myself or gfhockey post that is not pertinent to the conversation. Just because many respond like the are middle school girls is not our fault. Maybe we just like to look at things in a bigger picture than what small minds can take in at once. At least we are not the ones who are constantly violating the posting rules.vInInternet slang, atroll(/ˈtroʊl/,/ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people,[1]by posting inflammatory,[2]extraneous, oroff-topicmessages in an online community (such as a forum,chat room, or blog), eitheraccidentally[3][4]or with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into anemotionalresponse[5]or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[6]

Looks like Dubay is out looking for a job again. http://www.twincities.com/entertainment/ci_24902756/jeff-dubay-let-go-from-espn-cost-cutting

Hook, line and sinker.How are they biting today, Smoke?

Whereas the other teams fans bothered to take the time to travel and see the game in person. Probably larger TV numbers outside the Metro than in.Oh, so it had nothing to do with benefitting local Gopher fans who could work all day Thursday and Friday and then hit the X for a 7:00 pm game...and everything to do with allowing them time to get home and watch the game on TV from the comforts of their couch?
-
Do they usually fill?IF they fill.....

And you will be right on 4 out of the 5.OK, five things I predict for 2014:
Alex Rodriguez not playing a single baseball game.
Either the Patriots or Broncos making the Super Bowl.
Al Pearson putting together a Sioux hockey bus trip.
Grand Forks seeing below zero temps.
gfhockey getting bombed and posting about it on SiouxSports.com.
Mark this thread for next December and we'll see if my "predictions" make me look as smart as you.
I personally like my chances.

All before he was traded.Nice try. Never once said where I thought Kristo would play but I disagreed that he would be stuck in the ECHL. You were quite certain of it:
-
Two seasons at the most. I agree he most likely will not play in the E but in Europe. He probaby would be better off to go to Europe after school anyhow. He would easily have a very long and successful career there.I am going to put it out there that WHEN Rocco leaves he will at least play multiple seasons in the AHL and never play in the ECHL. I am not saying he is a sure fire NHLer, due to his size, however he is not going to play in the E. He'll most likely end up in Europe. But I hope he puts it all together and makes it to the Show.
-
All of you had him playing in the NHL this year.Nice try. Never once said where I thought Kristo would play but I disagreed that he would be stuck in the ECHL. You were quite certain of it:
-
And you had him starting in the NHL. Not a great track record as an elite hockey mind. He is not the only one all the elite hockey minds here had playing in the NHL. Over the next couple of years we will see after his 2 year contract runs out.You also claimed that Kristo would be spending 80%+ of his time in the ECHL. Not a great track record as an elite hockey mind.
-
Then why give it a name?That would never have happened as Minnesota was the one school in the WCHA that was against the "Minnesota Rule." Not to mention that rule was put in place for TV ratings, not attendance.
In a typical tournament setting(neutral ice) you would be correct. But these are simply home games for the Gophers with the times already decided. It's OUR home schedule. Of course we should get the 7pm time slot.

ST. PAUL — Rocco Grimaldi was projectedbymany to be a low first-round selection in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, but slipped to the second round on Saturday morning where the Florida Panthers selected him at No. 33 overall.I understand the religion comment, but if you've ever seen or heard an interview with Rocco you'd think otherwise. He has a tendency to be too hard on himself. And considering his commitment after his injury and red shirt, I would believe his work ethic is right up there where it needs to be.
"Sometimes you think something's going to happen one way but that's not what God has for you. I'm totally fine with that," he said.
Overt religious references weren't prevalent among the prospects in the Xcel Energy Center interview room, but Rocco Grimaldi isn't your typical NHL prospect when it comes to matters of faith.
The Anaheim, Calif. native is a devout Christian who has voiced a desire to become a pastor. His Twitter feed (@rgrimaldi23) is filled with messages of inspiration and gospel passages; including this tweet after the NHL Draft's first round on Friday:
"Let me encourage you this morning. When something doesn't go the way you think it's going to go, praise God even more. Just know that He is up to something bigger and greater than you can imagine (Ephesians 3:20)"Grimaldi said his use of social media to profess his beliefs isn't something he plans on changing if and when he makes the NHL.
"I think [Twitter and Facebook] are a way to spread the Gospel. I try to put positive messages out there, and keep my head up," he said. "Like last night. It was a little disappointment for me, but I came back with my head held high. That can be a good example for people going through hard times, that it's going to work out in the end." http://sports.yahoo....?urn=nhl-wp8027
